BriSCA F2 Mechanics Race
in aid of the Drivers Benevolent Fund
The Third running of the Spanner Trophy for Mechanics is taking place on Sunday 4th August as the last race of the afternoon. The rules for the event are provided below as well as a link to the sponsorship form.
The race seeks to raise funds (through participants raising sponsorship money) for the F2 Drivers Benevolent Fund, and this year with the main Ben Fund Title being held the day before at Crimond, it seemed the perfect opportunity to pair up the event to make a weekend of Ben Fund celebrations and fundraising.
